Tom Clancy meets The X-Files in Weston Ochse's SEAL Team 666 series starring the Navy SEALs who handle supernatural threats When a Senator's daughter is kidnapped by a mysterious group with ties to the supernatural . . . it's clearly a job for SEAL TEAM 666. As Triple Six gets involved, they discover links to the Zeta Cartel, a newly discovered temple beneath Mexico City, and a group known as Followers of the Flayed One. International politics, cross-border narco-terrorism, and an insidious force operating inside the team soon threaten to derail the mission. Forced to partner with several militant ex-patriots and a former Zeta hitman-turned-skinwalker, Triple Six is the world's only hope to stop the return of the Age of Blood. In this follow-up to SEAL Team 666, a kidnapping propels the team into hell. The daughter of a senator vanishes from a beach, and video footage shows her being attacked by a giant sea creature. But evidence demonstrating she’s still alive sends the team to Mexico, where one of the team members is bitten by the creature. Rather than seek help when he shows signs of being possessed, though, he hides what is happening to him. Soon the mission goes haywire, and the mayhem and bloodshed escalate. Ochse’s novel attempts to blend the military fiction of Tom Clancy with the supernatural horror of early Stephen King. It shouldn’t work, but it does, thanks mainly to the SEAL-team characters, just the kind of appealing heroes you want fighting visions from all our nightmares. More in this genre-blending vein will be eagerly anticipated. --Jeff Ayers “ Age of Blood is a great fast read and in many ways superior to the first novel...Even if you have zero interest in military fiction, and I counted myself among those that don't, you will find the backstories compelling. The horror is fresh with all sorts of new evil being faced by brave men and women trying to make the world just a little safer. If you are tired of authors mining the same territory, this is the kind of book that will jolt you with all sorts of new in your face thrills. Count me in as one of those people eagerly waiting for the next book in the series.” ― Fangoria “Those who enjoyed Ochse's first book will find more of the same to please them here.” ― Publishers Weekly “Ochse has hit on a new subgenre: military special ops battling supernatural enemies. Gore ensues.” ― Kirkus Reviews “Ochse's novel attempts to blend the military fiction of Tom Clancy with the supernatural horror of early Stephen King. It shouldn't work, but it does, thanks mainly to the SEAL-team characters, just the kind of appealing heroes you want fighting visions from all our nightmares. More in this genre-blending vein will be eagerly anticipated.” ― Booklist WESTON OCHSE has won the Bram Stoker Award for First Novel and been nominated for a Pushcart Prize for short fiction.
